Hi! I'm Jennie
My path to functional nutrition began with my own health struggles - exhaustion, hormone shifts, and symptoms no one could explain.
Now I help women uncover the root causes of fatigue and imbalance so they can restore their energy, balance, and vitality.
Work With MeFunctional Nutritionist & Founder of Enriched Nest
I’m Jennie Anderson - Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) and Restorative Health Practitioner (RHP). I’m also a mom of four, and my path into this work began through my own health journey.
I had my children at 32, 35, 38, and 42Â - years when many women start noticing shifts in their hormones, energy, and overall resilience. Along the way I experienced firsthand how much the body can change when foundational systems like nourishment, stress, gut health, and environmental exposures start falling out of balance.
What I didn’t realize at the time was how deeply those systems influence hormones, fertility, metabolism, and long-term health.
Today I help women connect those dots. Instead of chasing symptoms, we look at the deeper patterns in the body - supporting the systems that influence hormone balance, energy, and overall resilience so your body can function the way it was designed to.
It All Started With My Own Health Struggles
After years of pregnancies, postpartum seasons, and raising my family, my health started shifting in ways I couldn’t ignore.
I began dealing with extreme fatigue that never seemed to lift. I became prediabetic even with eating clean. My cycles became irregular and my mood felt all over the place. I had constant brain fog and days where my energy would completely crash.
Then other symptoms started showing up. My digestion became unpredictable. I dealt with bloating, gut issues, and eventually SIBO. My skin began reacting to everything - rashes, histamine flares, new food sensitivities, even allergies I had never had before. My hair started thinning, thyroid issues, and I had ongoing sinus issues that never seemed to fully resolve.
At the time it honestly just felt like my body was falling apart in ways I couldn’t explain.
Like most people in that situation, I started chasing symptoms. I tried supplement after supplement, different diets, protocols - anything that promised to fix the next problem that popped up.
I saw naturopaths, conventional doctors, specialists, had scans and lab tests - and most of the time I was told the same thing: everything looked "normal".
But I knew something deeper was going on.
Around the same time, my kids were dealing with some health struggles too - digestive issues, skin reactions, sensitivities that didn’t seem to have clear answers. Watching that unfold made it harder to ignore what was happening and made me even more frustrated.
I realized I needed to start looking deeper.
The Turning Point
Eventually I reached a point where I knew I couldn’t keep chasing one symptom at a time. Every new issue led to another supplement, another protocol, another opinion - but nothing explained why everything was happening in the first place.
I wanted to understand how the body actually works. That search led me to become a NTP, where I first learned how foundational systems like digestion, blood sugar regulation, mineral balance, stress physiology, and detox pathways influence overall health. For the first time, the pieces started to connect.
Instead of looking at isolated symptoms, this approach looks at how different systems in the body influence one another - and how imbalances can build over time until the body simply can’t compensate anymore.
That perspective completely changed how I looked at my own health. I later continued my training as a RHP, using functional lab testing to better understand deeper patterns in the body. As I kept digging, more pieces of my own puzzle came together - including mold illness and Lyme that had been quietly impacting my health for years.
Instead of chasing symptoms, I began rebuilding the foundations of my health. Over time my energy improved, my digestion stabilized, and many of the symptoms that once felt overwhelming began to settle.
These experiences changed the direction of my life.
Now I help women uncover the root causes behind hormone dysfunction, fatigue, and metabolic changes that often begin appearing in our 30s and 40s. I’ve been there - and I know how frustrating it can feel when you’re searching for answers and not finding the support you need. These symptoms are rarely random; they’re signals that the body needs deeper support.
Enriched Nest: A Nurturing Space for Growth and Wellness
These experiences eventually led me to create Enriched Nest - a place where women can step away from symptom chasing and begin understanding what their bodies truly need to heal.
Why a nest? Because a nest is a place of nourishment, protection, and growth. It represents the kind of support many women need during seasons when their health feels uncertain or out of balance.
A Nest of Support
A space where your health concerns are taken seriously and explored with curiosity and care.
A Nest of Knowledge
Tools, education, and functional insights that help you understand what is happening inside your body.
A Nest of Transformation
Practical strategies that help restore energy, improve resilience, and support long-term wellness.
As women - and often as mothers - we spend years caring for everyone around us. But when our health begins to decline, it becomes difficult to show up for the people and responsibilities we care about most.
When you begin restoring your own health, the impact reaches far beyond you. It influences the wellbeing of your family, your energy, and your ability to move through life with greater strength and clarity.
A Functional Approach to Root-Cause Healing
Our focus is on the foundational systems of health that influence energy, metabolism, and hormone function.
When these systems are supported, the body is better able to regulate hormones, cycles, fertility, and long-term wellness.
Stress & Nervous System
Your body cannot heal when it remains in a constant stress response. Supporting the nervous system helps regulate cortisol patterns, improve sleep, and restore the resilience needed for hormone balance and recovery.
Gut Health
&Â Digestion
If digestion is compromised, the body cannot properly absorb and utilize nutrients. We support gut function, microbiome balance, and digestive capacity to improve nutrient absorption, immune health, and hormone metabolism.
Blood Sugar & Metabolism
Stable blood sugar is one of the most important foundations of hormone health. Supporting glucose regulation improves metabolic function, insulin signaling, thyroid health, and sustained energy throughout the day.
Nutrient & Mineral Status
Minerals and essential nutrients drive nearly every process in the body. We assess diet, hydration, mineral balance, and key nutrient levels to support cellular energy, metabolism, and nervous system function.
Toxins & Detox Pathways
Environmental toxins, mold exposure, and chemical burden can place stress on the body and disrupt hormone and metabolic function. We focus on supporting detox and drainage pathways while reducing toxic burden.
